    Extractions: People People Menu Quintus Valerius Catullus was born around 84 BC. We know for a fact that his cognomen was Catullus. Several biographers have suggested the nomen to be Valerius. Of his praenomen, less is known. Many think it to have been Quintus but biographers Jerome and Apulius suggest it to have been Gaius. His family resided in Verona, a city in northern Italy, and belonged to the upper middle class. We know from the historian Suetonius that Julius Caesar once visited Catullus's father. However, with the exception of his brother, Catullus makes no reference to his family. In 62 BC, Catullus moved to Rome to seek fame and fortune. There is no reference to employment except for a short term of service with the military, so we assume his family had wealth and provided him with financial support. In Rome, Catullus associated himself with a small, high-class group of poets. Catullus and his associates came to be known as the Novi Poetae , the new poets. The Novi Poetae rebelled against their ancestors in life and in poetry. In life, the

    Extractions: BCE ), of Verona, went early to Rome, where he associated not only with other literary men from Cisalpine Gaul but also with Cicero and Hortensius. His surviving poems consist of nearly sixty short lyrics, eight longer poems in various metres, and almost fifty epigrams. All exemplify a strict technique of studied composition inherited from early Greek lyric and the poets of Alexandria. In his work we can trace his unhappy love for a woman he calls Lesbia; the death of his brother; his visits to Bithynia; and his emotional friendships and enmities at Rome. For consummate poetic artistry coupled with intensity of feeling Catullus's poems have no rival in Latin literature. BCE ), of equestrian rank and a friend of Horace, enjoyed the patronage of Marcus Valerius Messalla Corvinus, whom he several times apostrophizes. Three books of elegies have come down to us under his name, of which only the first two are authentic. Book 1 mostly proclaims his love for 'Delia', Book 2 his passion for 'Nemesis'. The third book consists of a miscellany of poems from the archives of Messalla; it is very doubtful whether any come from the pen of Tibullus himself. But a special interest attaches to a group of them which concern a girl called Sulpicia: some of the poems are written by her lover Cerinthus, while others purport to be her own composition.

    Extractions: ipsum, uersiculos nihil necesse est These verses stated a view of poetry which defied ancient convention. Euripides would not have been the only stage writer accused of holding himself a view stated in a play or of possessing himself the moral character attributed to a personage. The ancient biographers considered the lyric and iambic poems of the sixth and fifth centuries a straightforward source of information about the authors of these works. A succession of poets accused over the content of their poetry took up and applied to themselves Catullus' dictum (Ovid, Trist . 2. 353-6, Martial 1. 4. 7-8, Pliny, Epist . 4. 14. 4-5, Hadrian ap. Apul. Apol . 11, Apuleius, Apol . 11, Ausonius, Epigr . 25 [9]). There can be no doubt about the general sense of the dictum. I should like, however, to question the particular interpretation currently given to it.

    A brief essay on catullus as one of the Saints of Ecclesia Gnostica Catholica.

    Extractions: The first great Roman lyric poet, noted for his sincere, elegant, and passionate eroticism, the model for the medieval tradition of the art of courtly love. One of the great influences on Crowley the lyric poet. Catullus was born into a wealthy family of Celtic descent in the town of Verona in Cisalpine Gaul. His father was a friend of Julius Caesar, and sent his young son to Rome to learn the ways of the city. He was noticed by one Clodia Metelli, a married woman ten years his senior. They embarked upon a tempestuous love affair which provided the material for most of Catullus's poetry. The "Poems to Lesbia" written in the style of Sappho, chronicle the affair from flirtation through passion to bitter betrayal. Catullus is also noted for two wedding songs written for his friends, a poetic description of an initiation into the dark rites of Cybelê (the Magna Mater or Bona Dea , whose cult was popular in Julian Rome), several elegies, a hymn to the goddess Diana, a miniature epic on the marriage of Peleus and Thetis, and numerous satiric epigrams on the follies and crudities of his Roman contemporaries. The poems of Catullus are known to us through a single manuscript found in his home town of Verona.

    Extractions: I really enjoyed reading Steve’s post about translation. A lot of my writing time is spent not working on my own things, but translating. Translation is a great boon to a poet. You never have to face the white page alone if you don’t want to. I think of translation as a special kind of deep reading. It lets you try on other voices, and other genres (epic, didactic!). But it can be a heart-breaking business—there’s no such thing as a perfect translation, and every success is paid for by a failure. So since you are going to fail, why be dull?—be bold! Fail big! A couple of fun totally quirky (and distracting) translations: Louis Zukofsky and his wife, Celia, experimented with homophonic translations (something pioneered by Pound, I believe) of the Roman poet, Catullus (c.85-54 BC). That is, they tried to get both the meaning and the actual SOUNDS of the Latin across, in English. The results range from the wacky to the impressive. It doesn’t matter if you don’t know Latin—just try sounding out these few lines from poem 8 phonetically: Miser Catulle, desinas ineptire
